| Extending the reach of 10 Gigabit Ethernet in Telecom and Enterprise applications |
CommunicAsia, Singapore, June 22, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - Transition Networks Inc., the media conversion and Carrier Ethernet technology expert - supplier to a major service provider in Singapore - and a wholly owned subsidiary of Communications Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ-GM: JCS), today announced the Asian launch of its new 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber-to-fiber media converter.
The converter, which is already being trialed by a number of service providers and is field-proven to work with the Cisco 7600 model, is designed to meet the steady increase in network traffic that is driving service providers and enterprise network managers to explore newer 10 Gigabit technologies. Transition's new 10 Gigabit converters provide a solution to these broadband constraints by developing a cost-effective method for fiber extension and fiber mode conversion. This new line of 10 Gigabit media converters help enterprises and service providers extend the distances required for specific applications, while also supporting bandwidth-intensive applications such as video.
The trials of the new converter come as Transition Networks is expanding its activities across Asia, while also looking to increase its resources this year in Japan, Australia and New Zealand.
Sev Sadura, General Manager of Transition Networks, said: "This is a tremendously exciting time for Transition in Asia. We have a new product line built specifically to more than meet the increasing demands of constrained LAN & WAN networks, while also expanding our local presence at the same time."
"The demand for 10 Gigabit Ethernet is being driven by the increasing need to deliver multi-gigabit connections to the network edge, helping to reduce the potential bottle necks associated with increased traffic from bandwidth-hungry applications," he added. "This is where 10G is finding a lot of activity and where Transition's 10 Gigabit media conversion and fiber extension is ideal for Asia and beyond."
The 10 Gigabit technology supports multiple standards, such as varied transmission distances on different types of fiber. With Transition's 10 Gigabit media converter a user can select the fiber module needed to support their specific transmission distance requirements. Built for fiber extension over maximum transmission distances (80km/49.7mi), the 10 Gigabit media converter can also be used to interface between different types of fiber that may already be installed or available at a users location. For example, a conversion between single mode fiber to multimode fiber at 10G speeds can be used for expanding, extending, and upgrading the existing Ethernet networks in both Telecom and Enterprise applications where 10 Gigabit media conversion and fiber extension are required.
Product Features and Configuration
The 10 Gigabit converter is available as a stand-alone or Point System Chassis card and supports 3R (reamplify, reshape, and retime) optical signal regeneration. The chassis cards can also be managed when installed in a managed Point System Chassis. Transition Networks will be offering two versions. The xTGFF4747-100 version supports XFP modules and the xTGFF4848-100 version supports SFP+ modules. Transition Networks has a variety of XFP and SFP+ modules to choose from to customize the 10 gigabit converter to the specific user requirements.
Product Availability
A stand-alone and slide-in card form factor for the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Converter is now available. Please visit www.transition.com for the latest information.
